The 6 Mountains in One Day Challenge

Every day we’re travelling, we’re learning. Whether it’s about ourselves, another language or culture, or purely a new ingredient.

Through overcoming challenges along the way we feel stronger, more worldly. We can contribute to wider conversations, feel more confident driving in foreign lands, or realise that we can, actually, scuba dive and survive.

At least, this is what I’m telling myself with shaking legs as I hold the chain with a death adder’s grip on the descent from Mount Cooroora on the Sunshine Coast – the fourth of six mountain peaks I’m to scale in just one day.
